Market Overview (24h)

As of Thursday, October 16, 2025 (20:57 UTC+8 / 12:57 UTC), the cryptocurrency market continues to face downside pressure following last week’s record liquidation event. Bitcoin traded at approximately $110,774–$111,951, down 1.32%–2.2% in 24 hours. Ethereum declined 2.75%–4.4% to $3,993–$4,044. The total crypto market cap fell 1.4%–2.52% to roughly $3.76–$3.88 trillion, with total trading volume at $194–$495 billion. Dominant narratives centered on market deleveraging, ETF flows, and the aftermath of October 10’s $19 billion liquidation cascade—the largest in crypto history.12345678910

Derivatives \& Liquidations: Bitcoin futures open interest stabilized near $25 billion after October 10–12’s collapse from $70 billion to $58 billion. Funding rates compressed to Q3 2025 averages: BTC ~0.01% on BitMEX/Binance; ETH slightly higher but volatile on Hyperliquid (0.0126% mean, 0.0131% std dev). Fear \& Greed Index stood at 32–34 (Fear), last seen in April 2025. On October 14–15, a whale trader opened a $160 million leveraged BTC short at $117,370 (10x), drawing scrutiny for timing near policy announcements.11412131415

Altcoins: Among top 10 by market cap, 9 declined in 24h. Solana (SOL) dropped 3.9%–6.8% to ~$192–$193; XRP fell 3.5%–5.8% to $2.41–$2.43, with futures OI halving and $10B in market cap erased Oct 14–15. BNB was down ~4.3% to $1,168 despite Coinbase roadmap news. SUI traded at $2.67–$2.68, down 6.2% daily and 24.13% monthly. Avalanche (AVAX) and Cardano (ADA) also logged losses. Dogecoin (DOGE) fell ~3.9%.312161718191520

Stablecoins: Total supply reached a record $304 billion as of Oct 12, up $45B in Q3 (+18%). USDT dominates at ~$180B (60%+ share), USDC at $75B (25.5%, up 400 bps YTD), and USDe at $12–$14.4B. Transfers hit $15.6T in Q3, the strongest quarter on record.212223
